Freeware: pyPoziomica - Use Your N82 As A Level


Here is another one of those applications that won't be useful for everyone, but may come in handy for some. Personally I've had it installed on my phone for a while now and only needed to use it once. This is great for those who build things or work in the construction industry. Regardless if you need it or not, it's amazing that the N82 is capable of this...

What pyPoziomica does is convert your Nokia N82 into a level to try and make sure a surface is flat using the built in accelerometer. I've tested it out with a real level and it seems to be dead on. Oh and don't ask me how they came up with that name, no clue.

Check out the video demonstration I found on Youtube, created by the guys at Symbian World...



Before installation, you first need to make sure you have the Python programming language installed, which you can find here. (download the PythonForS60_1_4_3_3rdEd.SIS)
Also make sure you have the Accelerometer Plugin, which you can find here.

CLICK HERE to download the application.

It did not work for me. When the phone is horizontal, the bubble is not on the center cross. Does it work for you?

yes it works perfectly for me. put it on a known flat surface like a counter or desk and it goes perfectly in the center.

I tried to install the application but it would not install the sensor plugin?
Is there something I'm missing?
